I picked up this canvas(new with HS case) for my daughter about a year ago on ebay for $127.50 including shipping.She loves it.I don't care for the wider fretboard but it's her guitar so it doesn't bother me.

I don't think I've ever seen "F" holes taken so literally before.

I'm right there with you hot rod.

I'm going to alter the headstock though. I always feel like SG headstocks should have horns.

wonky tuners, but still a deal and a half. I looked at it.

I'm all LP'ed out though.

I really like that SG. Fuck.

It's $190. + 30 for an new bridge so my flats would intonate. + probably a $40 new P-90.

So for $260 I could have a pretty sweet SG Jr. Hmmmmm.

It would replace my 335, which I play about twice a week. Assume I play it for 2 years before I get bored or get something better (that would be generous). 104 weeks. So $1.25 for each time I play it. That's not counting maintenance and strings.

Bugger.

Willing to bet you could probably leave the p-90 in there as is

Woah. A painted cavity, too?


How very goth of them!

And that Canvas has a little of what I liked (in a kinky way) about the Fano Andy Partridge model.

Very tempting. Worse comes to worse new pickups and tuners, which wouldn't be too much.
